I have similar thoughts. To those who feel on the contrary, I would genuinely like to understand why average consumer won't be priced out of hardware? The silicon industry is alrea…

Maybe not? https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Jacobian_conjectu...

I would also like to know this. Fortran itself is column-major, so I would guess the internal layout isn't same for multi-dimensional arrays when compared to row-major C? I'm not s…

I'm not sure if I would ditch Zotero. Using grep over a bib file is nice but I guess you are opening the DOIs in browser every time? The reason I like Zotero is because I can use i…

Your understanding of what means value to this world is deeply pitiable.

I'm sorry but this is not a good enough argument for gutting science. You need to justify that capacity and coverage increase is required. The companies trying to make these plans …

Yes, I can do most of the things now because enough is already up there. Can you elaborate why do you want more? Like a million more as these companies are planning? When is it eno…

Can you define what progress is being made by creating more space junk?

Sure but it doesn't we can replace ground-based oned with space telescopes. They don't make the same class of observations

Is this thread being astroturfed by bots from big tech? Some absolutely obtuse comments.

That's an insane take. Do you actually understand what is being argued? It's an threat to ground based telescopes in the name of more slop-generating infrastructure.

The issue at hand is with the ground based telescopes. We need both ground-based and space-based telescopes because with ground based telescopes you can create arrays and interfero…

What advancement is being made exactly? SpaceX data centres to create more AI slop?

What exactly is the implication of saying this? This is not about over-regulation at all.

What about ground based telescopes and interferometers which enable observations with much much larger baseline? Space-based and ground-based telescopes are complementary to each o…

It depends on the kind of people. Most normal people don't do that, it's not a reddit-like platform after all. But most researchers and grad students (like me) often subscribe to d…

For something more rigorous, I would like to take this opportunity to share rebound[1], something we use for n-body simulations in our field (planet formation). Perhaps few people …

I have never understood this way of approaching programming. I feel the best way to learn a language is solving a problem you have in that language. Figure out an actual real probl…

Why do people still view languages as an investment? If you know programming then it's just a different syntax. Focus on learning programming.

It means that you are impressed by mediocrity. cf: https://nitter.net/mitchellh/status/2060088112257372610#m

If you're impressed by something which was done by AI, then you're not qualified enough to judge it.

Probably some tokenmaxxing competition between the employees. The whole company seems under some kind of AI psychosis.

I hope you don't do science because this is how reputation get tainted.

How do you develop a program which will run for longer duration on HPCs. How do you quickly modify struct definitations, how do you define imports (using vs include syntax is so co…
